If you're having trouble checking for the PHP script directly, you can make a trivial wrapper and check for that. I'm not sufficiently familiar with Windows scripting to put how it's done here, but in Bash, it'd look like...

#!/bin/bash
php test.php

Then you'd just check for the wrapper like you'd check for any other bash script: pidof -x wrapper_for_test_php.sh
